These women are so brave. But how many more times will they have to tell their harrowing stories in public?
After years of misconduct and botched investigations, four American gymnasts shared an emotional testimony in the failed FBI investigation of former Team USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar. Nearly four years after the trial and sentencing of Larry Nassar, gold medalists Simone Biles, Aly Raisman, McKayla Maroney, and Maggie Nichols spoke on behalf of themselves and nearly 500 victims of Nassar at the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, September 15th.
Beyond Nassar, the athletes’ testimonies called for accountability on behalf of the flawed FBI system and fabricated claims in their investigation. For McKayla Maroney, Olympic gold medalist and member of the Fierce Five gymnastics crew at the 2012 Summer Olympics, an FBI report from 2015 detailed her claims of sexual misconduct. Maroney had multiple instances with Nassar where he would have her change into shorts without underwear and touch her during training.
